Shooting a lot in Brisbane (Tri-X)

I've shot about 15 rolls in the last month, which is a lot for me. Does anyone else go through flow states where they're just really productive?

 

There is a tonne of more stuff on my photo journal.

 

All Leica M7, Voigtländer 35mm F1.7 Ultron Asph, Kodak 400TX

Fine pics all.

 

Yes, there is a certain "groove" that a photographer finds. It can happen in a single day when every shot becomes an epiphany, and it can occur over a season of daily production that astounds you when it's done.

 

Embrace it. Use it. Learn from it. Enjoy it.

Yeah I am embracing it. Shoot while the inspiration is there!

Really enjoying these Nick. Love that Tri-X contrast.

 

Are you shooting at box speed or pushed?

Thanks J! Yeah I really love adding punch to my Tri-X. I fine tune the tone curve of my raw file scans to never clip on either end.

 

I meter at 320 (develop normally in Rodinal 1:50) but I'm not too precious now as long as I'm protecting my shadows. Shooting manual on the streets I'm between 0 and +2 stops metering depending on how quickly I'm moving. A quick reading on a greyish tone and I'm set.
